Front shock absorber oil
Hello.
Among different posts there seems to be a common feeling about the stiffness of the front shock absorber. ¿Anyone has tried replacing the factory oil for another lighter, as the Motul Fork Oil 5W?

I think the factory fork oil is too light. I switched to a heavier fork oil, with good results.

Tuve que cambiar los retenedores del suspension delantera y tuve que usar 7W, ya que no encontre 5W, y mi ruta es demasiada mala, me gusta 5w por mas suave para los hiecos del camino
